I'd like to replace the internal thermostat in an upright freezer with the A419 that was on my old keezer. For that installation, the thermostat was located near the compressor and all the wires were available. The thermostat on this upright freezer is located away from the rest of the wiring. It only used the switched wire and was grounded to the internal steel wall.
The A419 uses a neutral for its power source. Id like to avoid running a neutral to the location and just use the existing wiring, but doubt that it would be safe. Id have to use the ground strap for the neutral connection in the A419. I dont know what kind of load the A419 pulls or if that even matters when it comes to safety.
Anyone with control wiring experience who can help me out?
